greddy T-78 on 20b
well....if you can hook up, and get the tires to stick And keep it in a straight line probably mid 10's or better. The amount of HP depends on how much boost, but petit's tri runs 10 psi and generates 630 to the wheels.

They run sequential twins, and at 15 PSI they make "550 BHP". But it is really a little less than that even.

2) The Acosta T-78 20B RX-8 is reported to have made 400 HP at 10 PSI boost.
3) No offense, but if you knew what you were doing, you would ask GReddy or your engine tuner about this subject rather than bothering with the internet peanut gallery. You did not post any fuel type, boost level, vehicle weight, or other useful information, nor have you indicated that you have any technical understanding of what constitutes a given hp level or 1/4 mi time. Therefore, I assume that you have no idea what you are doing with this project, and will therefore not have the engine tuned even close to its potential. Sorry if I am totally off base, but you can always prove me wrong with actual results.
4) If you really think you will make 700 hp, why did you bother asking in the first place?
(Now is the time that you tell me what a jerk I am for having the gall to give a blunt and honest assessment based on my opinion.)

2)Acosta runs a "Garrett T-78 turbo"... NOT! GREDDY T-78, and it has 400 at 10psi but it can handel more power at higher loads.
3) ????.....why dont u ask if its a shine day or if its night....
I hope I know what I am doing....tune the engine wont be the problem...
I have done it before on the 2rotor.
Maybe you are right, about what I am doing of my project...drag or drift but I want them both!
4)I never said, I think I will make 700hp, I just wonderd if its possible. with that turbo.
But I think it will defenetly make 450rwhp with Greddy T-78 turbo and much more Tourqe in the low range. And thats perfect on the street.
And I am very thankful for your quote.

Also, I am thinking about trying out for the Olympics, so I am looking at buying some really good shoes so I can run fast. I ran a couple of times in high school PE class, so definitely know how to run. Michael Johnson ran the 200m in 19.32 seconds with these gold shoes. So how fast do you think I can run the 200m with these gold Nike shoes, a pair of white Nike shorts, and a blue Haynes T-shirt?

And the PT76GTS is going to mak about 785 to the wheels and thats about mid 9.sec and 135+mph on a car that wights 3100lbs.
And this would be a great setup for the dragracing but I want the car on street and i hate the lag......ok!
chang to a biger turbo when I go to the track or buy a BB-turbo????????
Evil aviator what would you do?

Bad mom!!!
The garrett is good but I am going to use the PrecisionTurbo PT76GTS 1100hp on a piston engine or the PT88 1250hp on a piston engine....the PT76GTS cost is $1385 and the PT88 is for $1485.

I would recomend a T76 size or so from Innovative Turbo. Go with a dual ballbearing setup. You can go as small as a "Q" trim, with a larger AR.. Something like a 1.32 or so.
Here is a quick vid of the dual ballbearing in action:

Soo Like I shift mad quick Yo..... and well..
Using your quoted figures....
If I put the "PT76GTS 1100hp on a piston engine" on my wifes SATURN... I will have 1100hp? How about a Chevy SPRINT 3 CYLINDER? OR....... How about a Chevy 572???? Think it will be limited to 1100HP with that dainty turbo? Or will the sprint engine step up to the plate and bust out mad HP yo?
<shakes head>
Umm just because person X makes Y horsepower on a piston engine has ZERO NADA NOTHING to do with the HP you make on a rotary. Well.. maybe not nothing.. but close.
You completely missed Evil Aviators slap about the Gold Nikes.
Just cause you buy the shoes and pants and socks.. doesnt mean you will have the grunt to run that fast.
For those that missed it.. and I know the regular/long timers didnt.. Just cause you bolt on part x,y,z doesnt mean you will go "yo" fast.
Ok I am gonna stop before I go on a rant.. I have a cold and dont wanna be too silly...
Do some research on WHY people are getting X horsepower. What all did they do to get there.. besides the "golden Nikes"

If you are just looking for a basic guide, Red-Rx7's suggestion of a T76 seems to be a good choice for drag racing. However, you should really have your engine builder and/or tuner decide what will work best for your particular situation.
